The body tend to lose the emotional and mental management when stress occurs. Now, a new study shares the easiest ways to eliminate stress within 20 minutes.

Health Magazine shared some tips about the effective stress busters created based on how much time is required to diminish stress. The methods will also help the body in maintaining the stress level under control.

First, have one minute to spare to simply breath. Just place your hand an inch in the upper part of your belly button. Inhale on the count of four, and the belly button will expand about an inch. This kind of breathing stimulates the diaphragm in going deeper into the abdomen through the inhalation process, and it also squeezes the lungs while strengthening the heart on exhalation.

Eating chocolate is another example in alleviating stress. According to the study, those who are consuming 1.4 ounces of chocolates every day within two weeks have reduced their stress hormones such as cortisol.

Those who love arts and crafts can also lower the stress hormones in the body in just 10 minutes. The adult coloring books have been identified in delivering a therapeutic effect. A previous research also shows that doing something artsy helps people to relax, especially for those who are taking care of cancer patients.

Lastly, have at least 20 minutes to walk outdoors. Walking, running, and other outdoor activities can enhance the norepinephrine levels - a chemical in the brain that deals with stress. In addition, light outdoor activities could boost energy and mood.
